Christmas tree recycling

Christmas tree recycling

Our Christmas tree recycling points are now closed, and the City of London are not collecting Christmas trees on Hampstead Heath again this year. Please do not leave trees our streets at the boundary of the park.

You can still take your tree to Regis Road Reuse and Recycling Centre

Dumping your Christmas tree on the street is illegal and can make it difficult for people to get by safely. You may be fined £1000 for for fly-tipping.

Other ways to get rid of Christmas trees

Trees can also be collected: 

Many Christmas tree sellers provide a take-back service.

If you have the space, you can buy a living tree in a pot that you can plant in your garden or keep for next year.

The North London Waste Authority website has more ways to save money and reduce waste at Christmas.
